Program Description

Marshmallow’s HOPE Nonprofit Organization was awarded an Accelerator Award to develop their Intensive Outpatient and Mental Health Treatment Facility project, which fills a service gap for youth requiring mental health services in Winnebago County. Therapy is provided to clients aged 12-18 that are at an increased risk of suicide attempts using holistic approaches to mental wellness, such as mindfulness techniques and expressive arts therapy. With the Accelerator Award, Marshmallow’s HOPE Nonprofit Organization established the first in-person Intensive Outpatient Program in Winnebago County and the Northern Illinois Region.
